All the veterinarians of University were divided into several groups so no animals would be left unvaccinated. Altogether around 95 dogs were vaccinated. While visiting community, it was found that pet dogs were vaccinated against rabies in time. It shows people are being aware these days. Now, what we have to work for is to prevent street dogs and other animals from Rabies to prevent these animals as well as ourselves from Rabies. This is our main agenda of World Rabies Day 2019.
